Hotel Villa Sirina

Nestled within a valley filled with scented citrus groves and colourful oleanders, this historical villa is located in an enchanting part of Taormina, and boasts panoramic views of Giardini-Naxos bay.

The ambience of this comfortable villa is typically Sicilian in its warm hospitality and design: antique furniture, solid walnut and wrought iron furniture, local artisan objects and original materials like the beautiful Caltagirone ceramics all contribute to this villa’s special charm.

There are many opportunities to explore the surrounding areas: the beach at Giardini-Naxos Bay is located only 500 meters from the hotel and can be reached on foot. There is also a splendid golf-course situated 15 km from the villa where enthusiasts can spend pleasant afternoons, and a tennis court 2 km away.

In the afternoon, relax on a chaise lounge or read a book at one of the marble tables on the large terrace beside the swimming-pool.
